Picket fences are not enough to recreate a traditional neighborhood in Cary, NC.
Developers added picket fences and little front porches to this new subdivision in Cary, NC. However, it still lacks sidewalks, it has a cul-de-sac street pattern, and it is a long distance to any stores or businesses. Despite the attempt to look like a traditional neighborhood, it functions like typical suburban sprawl that is auto-oriented and unwalkable.
